starting two PWM timers with a defined offset between each other
Hi,
I want to start two PWM timers at the same frequency but with an offset of a few 100 us to few ms range but it doesn't appear to work.
I've been experimenting with something like this:
PCLK1Freq = HAL_RCC_GetPCLK1Freq()*2;
TIM3->ARR = (uint32_t)(((double)PCLK1Freq / (double)m_dat.fI) / ((double)TIM3->PSC + 1)) - 1;
TIM4->ARR = (uint32_t)(((double)PCLK1Freq / (double)m_dat.fI) / ((double)TIM4->PSC + 1)) - 1;
TIM3->CCR1 = TICKPERNANOSEC * (float)m_dat.fW;
TIM4->CCR1 = 1;
HAL_TIM_PWM_Start_custom(&htim3, TIM_CHANNEL_1);
HAL_TIM_PWM_Start_custom(&htim4, TIM_CHANNEL_1);
__HAL_TIM_ENABLE(&htim3); // Ensure the timer is actually enabled
vTaskDelay(delay_cnt);
__HAL_TIM_ENABLE(&htim4); // Ensure the timer is actually enabled
The function HAL_TIM_PWM_Start_custom() is nothing else than HAL_TIM_PWM_Start() with the __HAL_TIM_ENABLE calls commented out to be able to set the timers up and then start them back to back.
Now turns out that the call to vTaskDelay() doesn't actually allow me to properly offset thenm to eachother they appear to be in a fix phase with each other. How do I achieve the desired?
